Where is the option that lets me use my own avatar? I can't find it under anywhere.

ahh she-ite

see the bottom of the 'change avatar' page, where all the avatars are on the screen.

theres a little textbox at the bottom of the page to add your own via a url, or a local file on your computers hdd.

although the local upload thing is dodgy and not working for some, I believe.

Thanks for your help kernow. I had to click on the "change avatar button" several times before I got it to appear. I kept getting a black screen. Weird, no?

The same applies to me. I get this error:

There has been an error in the upload. Please ensure that the file has been correctly selected and that the upload has taken place successfully.

The AV is 64x64. Oh well I'll just wait until everything is all cool.

If you link to the url where your avatar is it will upload fine, for some reason the VBB won't allow uploads from your computer's hard drive.

Per MouseMaster's post at the top of the News & Rumors forum, custom avatars can now be uploaded from your desktop. Thanks MM!

Does anyone know that if you upload an avater if it will be stored on the sites archive of avatars? I am planning on making a full set of GGXX avatars if they do get saved here
